Puyméras is located on a hill, crowned by its church on the one hand, and the old castle on the other. Some Gallo-Roman remains were discovered. Formerly surrounded by ramparts, some traces remain, the town is part of the former Venaissin County.
The church, in Romanesque style, was mainly an atypical bell dating from 1743. Inside, a beautiful marble altar, a few tables and coated with ocher on the walls hold the attention of visitors.
Two nice wash and fountain, and three chapels are worth visiting. 12th century, these are the subject of a pilgrimage: Saint George, Saint Flavien, located on the old road from Falcon, and Saint Apollinaire, in the middle of the cemetery.
Discovery of the natural environment: There are many opportunities for walking on dirt roads through the mountain, including the ruined village of the Giants.
Unique: Puyméras and its republican tradition! On July 14, the statue of Marianne is carried in procession through the village. Republican banquet and ball close the day.
Small market on Wednesday and Saturday in the late afternoon (all year except winter).
